Light is both wave and particles
and that’s called the duality of light

2- DIFFRACTION
Definition:
• When a source of monochromatic light ( light of one- color red, blue, green … ect)
pass through a slit of a width “a” ( a < 1mm)
• When waves travel through a / slit they can spread out from the gap: this is called
diffraction.
• The consequence of diffraction is that the wave can effectively travel around a
corner

2- DIFFRACTION
Condition of diffraction
- The effect is only noticed when the gap is of a similar size to the
wavelength of the wave.
- Too large a gap compared to the wavelength, and the waves pass
through without much change
